Motorcycle ride to benefit MRDD

By Josh Sweigart | Tuesday, August 18, 2009, 12:41 PM

Press release from Butler County MRDD:

The Butler County Board of MRDD (soon to be called the Butler County Board of Developmental Disabilities!) is hosting a Benefit Motorcycle Bike Ride on Saturday, August 22. The ride and after-party event takes place at the Tri-County Harley Davidson Store on Route 4 in Fairfield.

The ride begins at noon and the after-party runs from 1-4 p.m. We’ll have good food, great entertainment and some excellent raffle prizes. This is the third year running of this event and it’s always been a fun time! We see a good mix of bike riders, our own staff, community volunteers and individuals with developmental disabilities and their families.

We don’t require riders to pre-register so anyone can show up that morning (registration begins at 10 a.m., cost is $20 per rider) and they can be a part of the ride. We want to get the word out to attract more riders.

We are hoping to have a gathering of individuals and their families, as well as our staff, at our office located at 155 Donald Drive at around 12:00 p.m. that day. The bikers will be going past the office and we’ll cheer then on and thank them for participating.
